‘Ghost Recon: Future Soldier’ Multiplayer Behind The Scenes

Hardcore Tom Clancy game fans will be more than familiar with Ubisoft’sGhost Recon games, a series which hasn’t seen a main franchise installment in an unusually long time (since 2007’s Advanced Warfighter 2) and whose games continue to push the story and technology further into the future. Ghost Recon: Future Soldier takes full advantage of its unique futuristic setting and gameplay mechanics, especially within the multiplayer portion of the game. Ubisoft has released a new video discussing the features and gameplay to be expected in the title’s multiplayer and yes, it looks very impressive.

Multiplayer is Tom Clancy shooters is always a very big part of the game’s experience and Ghost Recon: Future Soldier is going to be no exception, both competitively and in the series’ traditional co-operative campaign. The gameplay has taken a much more fast paced feel than the usual methodical, tactical approach of the previous Ghost Recon games and that will be a bone of contention among series regulars looking for something as distances from Battlefield 3 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 as possible. Once you see the game in action, you will realize the pace change, while increased, still doesn’t play as fast as Call of Duty‘s “arcade” like feel.

The video talks about the various classes available to play in Future Soldier and how they’re all enacting a different role on the battlefield. In addition, you will get to see the different kinds of gameplay mechanics that have been talked about or seen before, in much more detail. The cover swap system is very similar to the system that was created for Splinter Cell: Conviction (another Ubisoft title with one of the best functioning cover systems around), as well as a suppressive fire system that seems very effective and fitting.
